How a Vertical Lift in Idaho Solves Everyday Accessibility Challenges

Struggling with stairs, seasonal hazards, or bulky ramps isn’t just inconvenient. It can be dangerous, frustrating, and even life-altering for those with limited mobility.

That’s where our vertical platform lifts come in—engineered to solve these real-life challenges with safety, simplicity, and reliability in mind.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much space does it require?

Most lifts only require a footprint of 36" x 54" or slightly larger, depending on platform size. This is far smaller than a ramp, especially for higher elevation changes, making it ideal for tight entryways or porches.

How much do vertical platform lifts cost?

The average cost ranges from $7,500 to $15,500, depending on lift height, location, and selected features. Installation and optional accessories (like battery backup or automatic gates) are additional expenses.

How long does installation take?

Most vertical lifts in Idaho can be installed in just one day. We’ll prep the area, install the lift, run safety tests, and walk you through how to use it before we leave.

Do you offer vertical lifts for businesses and commercial buildings?

Yes, we provide commercial-grade VPLs that are ADA-compliant and heavy-duty and meet state and federal accessibility codes for businesses, schools, churches, medical offices, and more.

How do I know which model is right for me?

We offer free in-home or on-site evaluations where we assess your mobility needs, layout, and preferences. Based on that, we recommend the lift that fits you best.
